CHECK-REGISTER.

To all whom t may concern:

Be it known that I, DOMINIO A. VALvANo, a subject of the King of Italy,and a resident of Linden, in the county of Union 'and State of NewJersey, have invented a new and Improved Check-Register, of which thefol lowing is a full, clear, and exact description.

rThis invention relates to registers and particularly to a checkregister for use in barber shops and other places and has for an objectthe provision of an improved construction which will show at all timesthe value of the checks removed.

Another object in view is to provide a register for each barber in abarber shop or other place arranged with dilerent columns of checks withindications alongside the columns showing the value of the checksremoved automatically.

'In the accompanying drawing:

Figure l. is a front view of a register disclosing an embodiment of theinvention.

Fig. 2 is a section through Fig. l on line 2f-2.

Referrin to the accompanying drawing by numera s, 1 indicates a baselformed of any desired material and 2 a body formed of any desiredmaterial, as for instance wood, said body being rovided with a pluralityof bores 3, certain o? said bores being divided by a division plate 4,which thereby produces a plurality of upper sections 5 and a pluralityof lower sections 6. The upper sections 5 and the bore 3 extend for thefull height of the body 2 and are open at the top, while the sections 6are closed at the top, but are provided withnotches 7 and 8 adjacent thetop through which the various checks 9 may be passed inwardly oroutwardly. ^lifter a few checks have been used the upper check may begrasped by the person using the device and turned edgewise so as toquickly remove lthesame. Arranged alongsideof each bore speeiacation efLetters raient. Patented Apr. 23, 1918. Application filed November 16,1917. Serial Nc. 202,890.

f5 including sections 5 and 6 are numbers 10 indlcating the valueswhereby after a number of coins have been removed from the bore thevalue of the'reinoved coins can be instantly value of the work done sothat at the end of the day he may add up the values of the variouscolumns and lind out the total of the work done. It will be noted thatthe various checks 9 are of such a thickness as to always come oppositethe respective numbers regardless of the value of the check, as saidchecks are preferably of the same size and thickness though theindicatedvalues are dili'erent.

What I claim is:

A register of thc character described comprising a plurality of sockets,each of said `sockets having a slot in one side, a plurality of numbersarranged alongside each of said slots, a fixed division member arranged1n said body and dividing certain of said sockl ets into upper and lowersections, said body also being provided with notches for the lowersection, said notches being arranged adjacent said division plate, and aplurality of checks for cach of said sockets, said checks being of sucha thickness as to appear opposite said numbers, and the saidnotchesbeing .of such a size as to permit the checks to be movedtherethrough.
